Drag Me Away

Did you think that I was leaving
My ticket was just one way
The angels I believed in
Were gonna carry me away
Did you think that I would simply
Give them my last breath
Well honey you've got me wrong
I would never leave you for death
It's gonna take more than that to get rid of me
It's gonna take more than that to make me fade
They'll have to tie me up and drag me away
They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away
There is no one I serve
I am not here to please
I will not be a hostage
To my own dis-ease
Come on out and hold me
Out into the great sunlight
No power on earth can stop us
We both become one tonight
I've never been more sure of anything
I've never been more sure of what I am
They'll have to tie me up and drag me away
They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away
There is no dark that can over come a flame
There is no force that can
Drag me away
They could bring an army
Ten thousand men or more
Their mass weapons of destruction
Won't even up the score
Come on come on baby
They'll have to drag me away
They'll have to tie me up and drag me away
They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away
There's no dark that can overcome a flame
There's no force that can drag me away
